Chapter 486: The Japanese Army on Heightened Vigilance (Page 1/1)

The 3rd Infantry Squadron of the Teaching Brigade, reinforced a heavy machine-gun platoon, drove out of its original position, and concealed itself in batches in the field on the left flank of the position.

Because of the large size of the team, an infantry squadron plus a platoon, and a small appearance of 200 people, Zhang Wei and Zheng Yiqun did not rush forward.

After opening up the position from the left side, Zhang Wei ordered the 3rd Squadron and the machine gun platoon to hide first, and wait until they observed the front before making a decision.

Because he had already fought a battle before, it was impossible for Zhang Wei to command the troops to advance all the way and completely to the lurking position where the third platoon of infantry rescued the two soldiers of the engineer platoon.

"Captain, the brethren have come out." Zheng Yiqun fell down in the field and said to Zhang Wei, who was also in the field.

Behind them, the brothers of the third squadron and the first platoon of heavy machine guns of the heavy fire squadron were evacuated in the field, and the combat groups of each squad were scattered, prostrate in the field, one soldier after another looked nervously ahead, and the soldiers of the heavy machine gun platoon put their bodies very low, and were assembling the heavy machine guns with the gun body and the tripod and ammunition, constantly making the sound of steel rubbing.

After the troops were concealed on the spot, the machine gun platoon loaded the disassembled heavy machine guns together in order to respond to the battle in a timely manner, and the real contingent of the third squadron and the machine gun platoon were still under the protection of the position of the teaching brigade, and the strikers did not go out of the cordon of the front-line trenches of the teaching brigade, and they were still relatively safe.

Zhang Wei held a telescope and observed the movements of the Japanese army a few hundred meters ahead.

"Zheng Yiqun, take a look, the devil sentry on the opposite side has really strengthened." Zhang Wei said.

Zheng Yiqun raised the binoculars, lay down beside Zhang Wei, and looked into the distance together.

Zhang Wei's German-style Zeiss telescope can clearly see the battlefield from hundreds of meters away.

The target location, which was also the only way for the engineer platoon to return, was located on the right side of the Japanese Takeda Brigade position, at the edge of the defensive position on the right side of the road.

From the perspective of the Teaching Brigade and Zhang Wei, it is the left flank edge of the position of the Teaching Brigade, because the Japanese Takeda Brigade and the defenders of the National Army in the second-line position are showing the momentum of a bull, so for the Takeda Brigade, it is the right side of the position, which is just the opposite of the perspective of the Teaching Brigade.

At the edge of the Japanese position, a considerable number of Japanese soldiers appeared, patrolling in groups of three or five, searching in the nearby fields, as if they were exploring something, and they were also divided into two parts, one part of them were on alert in the direction of the teaching brigade, and the other part was on guard in the rear, as well as swimming reconnaissance and searching.

Originally, there were very few Japanese troops here, but after the third platoon of the infantry of the first squadron rescued two engineer platoon soldiers who reported the battle, the vigilant Takeda Brigade strengthened its vigilance here and increased the garrison force.

In addition to the increase in troops, these alert Japanese troops all built improvised fortifications, and some Japanese troops went back and forth between the main position of the Takeda Brigade and these alert Japanese troops.

Zheng Yiqun and Zhang Wei both saw these in their eyes and remembered them in their hearts.

"Captain, the devil seems to have a heavy machine gun." Zheng Yiqun said that the heavy machine gun, Zhang Wei can also see it in the telescope, although the machine gun can not be seen, but the two Japanese troops gathered together in the field and dug up the improvised position, equipped with heavy machine guns.

"Your third squadron has a pot to drink this time, the infantry has a squad, and the Japanese troops in the main position may still support at any time, equipped with heavy machine guns to guard, hum." Zhang Wei whispered and said to Zheng Yiqun in a playful tone, but he was not so leisurely in his heart.

The Takeda Brigade was quick and efficient in remedying its own mistakes and omissions, and the battle of the third platoon of the 1st Squadron Infantry was over for a long time, and the Japanese were more than a notch more alert at the edge of the position.

Motorized infantry, constant searches, additional troops, the arrangement of heavy machine gun fire, and the construction of improvised fortifications have all been done, and the Japanese army is indeed fucking difficult to deal with.

He Jinhai's engineer platoon, under such a level of alert, wanted to secretly sneak through and return to the position of the teaching brigade safely, but he didn't even think about it, and it was impossible not to shoot.

Zheng Yiqun chose to ignore Zhang Wei's jokes, he was the squadron leader of the third squadron, looking at the well-guarded and increased firepower of the Japanese troops in front of him, it was inevitable to be afraid, after all, it was the soldiers of his third squadron who were on top.

"Captain, the brothers of the engineer platoon haven't moved yet, and my three squadrons can't do it here to dry, why don't you let the brothers touch the front?"

Zhang Wei put away the binoculars: "This can only be done, don't go collectively, send a squad, scatter and tentatively touch forward, don't be exposed, the devil's direct alert force is a reinforced squad, and there may be heavy machine guns, let everyone be careful, don't make a move." ”

"Yes!" Zheng Yiqun crawled backwards, ready to organize people to touch forward.

Zhang Wei looked at the small black dots in the distance, the strength of the Japanese army after the increase had increased to a small team, it was suspected that there were two heavy machine guns, together they were a fairly strong firepower, there were hidden places in the field, but generally speaking, the terrain was flat.

With more than 200 people under his command, it is impossible to rush hard, it is to die.

"Damn, it's not good."

Zhang Wei scolded, according to the vigilance level of the devil, the third squadron plus a heavy machine gun platoon, more than 200 people have to nest here, and there is not much to move forward, so they can only send a small group of men and horses to advance first.

This anticipated surprise attack was not one-sided, but also combined with the actions of the engineer platoon, Zhang Wei was determined not to fire first, and firing first was equivalent to sending a signal to the Japanese army.

In addition, there was no communication with the engineer platoon, and the only option was to take the stupidest method, and let the engineer platoon fire first as a signal.

In other words, if He Jinhai opens fire first, the third squadron will fight here, and the initiative is now in the hands of the engineer platoon.

After the engineer platoon opened fire, the third squadron quickly followed the roots, concentrated firepower in both directions, and had the greatest possibility of receiving the engineer platoon.

If it is a unilateral fire, it will not be able to concentrate the firepower of the troops, but it is likely that because the firepower of the troops is not enough, it will not be able to give enough damage to the alert Japanese army, and it will not be able to break through, and the Japanese troops in the main position will not be able to smash the Japanese alert troops.

An engineer platoon was isolated in the rear of the Takeda brigade's position, and without reinforcements, it was unlikely to cross the Japanese cordon.

……

Zheng Yiqun quickly organized and selected a squad of soldiers, crawling forward, individual soldiers scattered, and moved forward little by little.

The two ZB37 heavy machine guns of the heavy machine gun platoon were carried by the machine gunners crawling and carrying the tripods, and advanced for a certain distance, and the height of the firing line of the guns was lowered as low as possible by the machine gun squads......
